end
RECOMMENDATION(S):
Recommendation
That the Board of Supervisors:
1. Extend Dr. Jeremy Michael Clark extra-help employment of 960 hours to a maximum of 1,680 hours for Fiscal Year 2019-2020 pursuant to Section 7 of the Humboldt County Salary Resolution. (4/5 vote required)
Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
HR - Personnel (1100130)
DISCUSSION:
Dr. Clark has been working as an extra-help employee during the current fiscal year due to staff shortages resulting from employee transitions, vacancies, increased workloads and other departmental needs. As of January 21, 2020, Dr. Clark has worked a total of 833 hours. Human Resources is requesting an extension of hours for the remainder of the fiscal year.
Dr. Clark is needed to continue work on the payroll transition, develop interdepartmental processes, liaise with departments, co-lead the impending One Solution upgrade, and support the Human Resources department during this time of transition. His expertise has proven invaluable and the department will benefit from his continued service.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Estimated maximum salary and benefit costs for the requested extension of extra-help hours is $20,159.25. There is a sufficient allocation in the Salaries and Employee Benefits category, budgeted in Personnel (1100130), to accommodate the increase in hours. There will be no additional impact to the General Fund.
All extra help employees working beyond the 960 hours are subject to paying into the California
